Ooooo! Yummers! I don't suppose you know about the number of cups of popped corn that 3 bags are. I spent too many years in offices where the break room smelled like micro popcorn and can't stand the stuff anymore. But we do have a popper.

I just looked on the Orville box and 3 bags=12 cups popped. Sorry but I don't know what that equates to in unpopped kernels :/On a side note, I worked in an office where the girls were trying to lose weight by eating popcorn at lunch (how is that even possible???) and the doctor that we worked for used to freak out at the smell. So much so that he never went to the movies because he hated the smell.

I have this receipe and it calls for 8 quarts of popped corn. I use my large 4-cup glass measuring cup. Remember 4 cups is 1 quart.....so I pop enough using a hot air popper until I get 8 quarts. I hope this helps.

Thanks so much! I know I can't pop all 12 cups at once so I can test it and figure it out. The ManFlesh is a popcorn fiend so if we end up with 13 cups I bet he can take care of it.

Thanks for mentioning that Puzzeling, I used a large non-stick pan, it looks too big when the ingredients are first put in but it definitely "grows" as it cooks.I didn't use 4 quarts of popcorn because I feel that the caramel isn't enough to cover it to my liking, I prefer less popcorn, more caramel.
